The entire photograph is used to convey the impression intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.

The digitized image of the original photograph is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the photographer, the subject and the Australian War Memorial, without being unnecessarily high resolution.

The significance of the image is to help the reader identify the historical person, to assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the person, and illustrate the life of the person in a way that words alone could not convey.

Because it is a formal photograph, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the impression intended by the photographer, and the Australian War Memorial, would tarnish or misrepresent this person's image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. Subject died in 2004.
